2. Butler's in NOLA. A living room with an Atari? Wtf??? How are they not franchised?
3. Bennigans in both cities. How is Applebees still in business but not the ole green and white buildings that offered a 5k calorie sandwich with sugary crust, salted meats, and jelly. And man...that SW Sampler!

Pei Wei in BR. Always packed when I went in.

Did Copeland’s finally go under? If so, that’s my vote.

I don’t think the food was the problem at Bennigins it was the location.

Blimpies sandwiches on O’Neal lane was the bomb

Photon in BR. Before the city itself became a first person shooter simulation.

The Real Superstore. Needing a quarter to use a basket was brilliant. Little worry of having a stray basket hitting your car in the parking lot. Doubt that they invented the idea, but they were the only ones in SELA that I've ever seen use it.
From what I remember, it was really clean and had good meats/fruits/veggies.

Did they return the quarter when you were done? What was the purpose

Southdown's Lounge. Rodney lost the lease after so many successful years in that location. Lots of people turned out for the last two weeks it was in business.

The Times off of Essen in BR
Unbelievable burgers. Damn shame that place is gone.

Bad location. Not good enough to eat, get a buzz, and have to turn left on Essen. Good burgers. They had good publicity in mid 2000s also. Black and bleu burger they had was magic.

Chalmette Owl, I do not know when they started or when they went out...but I went there as early as 1998 and as late as 2004. Loved it. Had a first date with a serious g/f there and we had a blast.
